[Ex-User (250)]

no, long name.... kazawa..........something something... pretty famous kind of nature-ish thing.... shows us moving like ants. stop motion. sky scrapers. that should be enough for someone who knows what i'm talkin' about.

I think baraka is one of the best films I've ever seen - so many times I've stuck the dvd on for friends, and after initally whining about 'watchin a boring world movie with no dialogue' all of them have been ranting about how amazing it was afterwards..

Didn't HMV used to give away free copies of Parahomosquatsi and Quasimongotutsi when you spent over €1 a while back?

Koyaanisqatsi is deadly.
Poyasqatsi is shite.
Naqoyqatsi is okay. Yo-Yo Ma's cello gets real old, real quick.

 

[Ex-User (250)]

well there's no point in watching them now. thanks a lot.

Baraka fuckin roks. It's always on the Discovery channel. It's a bit of a rip off of Koyanisquaatsi tho isn't it?

thought Naqoyqatsi was very so-so... looked like someone got a bit crazy with AfterEffects... enough with the solarization, invert, blah etc.!

but yes, koyaanisqatsi is fantastico. esp the end sequence culminating with the rocket ship. a rather fatalistic image. that's the best thing about koyaanisqatsi, it's very open to being read in so many different ways. it was impossible to find for the longest time, it's great that it's easy to get again. baraka is also great. note that ron fricke wasn't involved in the two qatsi follow ups, hence their relative inferiority.
